Other people's locks are ignored at my building and just shoved to the back of the rack.

Sometimes I take a wake-up break and walk down to check my tyres aren't flat, check out the various bike parking spots.Apart from a couple high end examples, I usually see a lot of average bikes and appreciate mine all the more =D

re: locks, that's the main reason I return to the same spot, same routine, some regulars mix it up and take 'my spot' but there's a 3 way split so can just be a pain to dig my locks out from around their wheels/chain/derailleurs.

I've also noticed the numbers are starting to dwindle with the cold starting to come.thats 1of my big goals this year,make it though winter.i keep telling myself Im a piece of steel,checker plate steel.

Youll be right I'm sure, I had similar rode through all weather alternating with motorcycles scooters a couple years ago, so started 2012 exclusively bike commuting every day approaching 18months now, don't have any autos for myself anymore since not using them and would rather cycle with a fever than catch bus train.

A guy here gets to work first thing, hangs his towel in the locker room, and has the same guy come in later keep moving it and hanging his towel/clothes on that spot.Same deal loads of vacant space. I thought you could have a lot of fun with someone of that nature... but the colleagues escalated the possibilities far beyond what I thought was fair play =D
